Compare to Other Courses:
Powerglide - $169.95 - book and CD only; no teacher support. Teaches Latin like a modern language (body parts, family members, shapes) - no preparation to read ancient authors.
Rosetta Stone - $195 - CD; no teacher support. Teaches Latin as if you're preparing to travel to Ancient Rome -- though that may be a great adventure, it's not currently possible.
The Online Latin School - Seems defunct - emailed contact person and haven't received a reply. Many online schools seem to come and go quickly.
Other online tutorials - $475-$550 for Latin I - audio only (no video), many use the (very dry) Wheelock text. All tutorials found only meet once/week for 1 hour 30 minutes.
